Norway’s Norse Atlantic Airways carried more than 151,000 passengers in December, a 22% increase compared with the same month in 2024.
For December, Norse’s load factor was 98% across its network and its ACMI and charter operations, translating to a 4% increase year-over-year. This is also the 14th consecutive month above 90% for the carrier.
In addition, during 2025, Norse Atlantic carried a total of 1.84 million passengers, rising 26% from 2024.
The load factor was 96% across all of Norse’s operations, increasing 12% compared with 2024.
“Norse Atlantic completes 2025 with strong passenger growth, increased production, and full flights,” CEO Eivind Roald said in a statement. “This reflects an attractive product driving customer demand in a highly competitive market. I am proud to see the steps taken in recent months and the hard work by the entire team have resulted in real progress across our business despite operational and weather challenges impacting a busy year-end holiday period.”
Norse officials said progress in 2025 reflects a successful transition to a dual-strategy business model in the second half of the year, and improved performance in the carrier’s own network.
At year-end, five Norse aircraft were being used to operate charter flights for IndiGo, with a sixth aircraft to be delivered in early 2026.
